St. Patricks Day 5 Mile Race

I had a goal in mind this time last year, if I was healthy and able, I would participate in the annual St. Patricks Day 5 mile race in downtown St Louis. Last year because I was about to have my Whipple, I did not run in it and I wanted to complete my goal this year. I ran it in 58 minutes and to be honest I could tell right away that I might need to train a little bit more the next time ( I was breathing pretty hard at the two mile check point). I finished it though. My wife and 12 year old both beat me, but considering I have not really done cardio this year because I have been trying to put on weight, I was not unhappy with the result. Next up – a mini triathlon in April. This time last year I was signed up to do one and then found out that my Pancreas had different plans for me. I told myself last year during surgery recovery, that if healthy, I was doing it in 2019. Stay tuned!
